Nintendo's Summer 2024 Magazine features a captivating interview with Splatoon's musical icons: Deep Cut (Shiver, Big Man, and Frye), Off the Hook (Pearl and Marina), and the Squid Sisters (Callie and Marie). This "Great Big Three-Group Summit" reveals heartwarming behind-the-scenes moments and hints at future collaborations.
The six-page spread delves into the artists' experiences, including a memorable trip. Callie recounts Deep Cut's grand tour of the Splatlands, highlighting the stunning Scorch Gorge and the bustling Hagglefish Market. Shiver's playful response confirms their intimate knowledge of the region's hidden gems. Marie playfully teases Callie's sentimental attachment to the experience, prompting a suggestion for a reunion tea party with Off the Hook, a tradition long overdue. Marina eagerly suggests a new sweets shop in Inkpolis Square, extending the invitation to Frye, complete with a playful challenge to settle their karaoke rivalry.
Beyond the heartwarming anecdotes, the magazine also announces Splatoon 3's Patch Ver. 8.1.0, released July 17th. This update focuses on enhancing the multiplayer experience, addressing weapon balance, and improving overall gameplay smoothness. Specific improvements include preventing unintended signals, addressing visual obstructions caused by scattered weapons and gear, and more. Future updates are planned, with a focus on further multiplayer balance adjustments, including potential nerfs to specific weapons.
